From the Atlanta Constitution
of August 10th we extract the
following complimentary remarks
on the speech of Gen, w. II. Miles,
delivered at the Inter State Far.
mer's Convention which met in
the city Of Atlanta last week.
The speech of Gen. Miles, of
Mississippi, delivered casually
from his place among the privates
was the notable speech of the ag-
ricultural convention. 1t was to
the point, sensible and straight
forward.
General Miles is a typical figure
He Is representative in the very
best sense of all that was best IN
the old. fashioned Southern gentle.
man. He is o model of the ciyili'
cation of that day, which our
critics say was weak in it's training
for adversely and for precise. me-
thods. And yet General Miles
handicapped at the close of the
war by q debt ofS200,000, bearing
ten per cent interest, has paid
every cent of that with twenty
crops, and is to-day rich man
The story of those twenty crops
how they were pitched, how cult
waited, how harvested and how
sold, would make story worthy
of letters Of gold, The genera
process he gives in his speecl
and III words that every farmer
should heed. 1t 10 the old story
old as the hills, as true as truth
that home raised supplies make
the farmer nch-and that all cot
ton makes the farmer poor.
IT the Constitution did no more
that coax this admirable gentleman
from his retirement and produc,
this sendible speech, 1t earned iti
right to hold the attention of peo
pie for q week.n-Yazoo Herald
